FAITH TRUSTING
(#2 in a series on the Book of Habakkuk)
In chapter 1 of
Habakkuk, the prophet has his faith severely tested.
He gave his complaint to
God concerning the sin of his people. Vss. 1-4
He received the
consolation that they would be judged by the Chaldeans
(Babylonians) Vss. 5-11.
He shows confusion
wondering how God could use people more unrighteous than the Jews as tools of
judgment. Vss. 12-21
He shows confidence,
waiting for God to give Him an answer. 2:2
In this chapter we find
Habakkuk trusting God for an answer. And Habakkuk is not disappointed.
